Draw a box round arg. Looks at thickness,
box-padding and font-size properties to determine line
thickness and padding around the markup.

\markup {
\override #'(box-padding . 0.5)
\box
\line { V. S. }
}

Used properties:

box-padding (0.2)

font-size (0)

thickness (1)

\capsarg (markup)

Copy of the \smallCaps command.

\markup {
default
\hspace #2
\caps {
Text in small caps
}
}

\dynamicarg (markup)

Use the dynamic font. This font only contains s, f, m,
z, p, and r. When producing phrases, like
‘più f’, the normal words (like ‘più’) should be
done in a different font. The recommended font for this is bold and italic.

\markup {
\dynamic {
sfzp
}
}

\fingerarg (markup)

Set arg as small numbers.

\markup {
\finger {
1 2 3 4 5
}
}

\fontCapsarg (markup)

Set font-shape to caps

Note: \fontCaps requires the installation and selection of
fonts which support the caps font shape.

\fontsizeincrement (number) arg (markup)

Add increment to the font-size. Adjusts baseline-skip
accordingly.

\markup {
default
\hspace #2
\fontsize #-1.5
smaller
}

Used properties:

baseline-skip (2)

word-space (1)

font-size (0)

\hugearg (markup)

Set font size to +2.

\markup {
default
\hspace #2
\huge
huge
}

\italicarg (markup)

Use italic font-shape for arg.

\markup {
default
\hspace #2
\italic
italic
}

\largearg (markup)

Set font size to +1.

\markup {
default
\hspace #2
\large
large
}

\largerarg (markup)

Increase the font size relative to the current setting.

\markup {
default
\hspace #2
\larger
larger
}

\magnifysz (number) arg (markup)

Set the font magnification for its argument. In the following
example, the middle A is 10% larger:

A \magnify #1.1 { A } A

Note: Magnification only works if a font name is explicitly selected.
Use \fontsize otherwise.
